The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v3. Results and the main claim are underlined; show every role.

We describe a simple class of supersymmetric gauge theories that can act as supersymmetry-breaking sectors for gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking. The models have a local supersymmetry-breaking minimum along a direction in field space where a singlet gets a large expectation value. The potential along this direction has a runaway behavior stabilized by supersymmetry breaking in the effective low-energy theory. The supersymmetric vacua are at infinite field values, and cosmological bounds on false vacuum decay are easily satisfied. The models have no dimensionful parameters, and all mass scales arise through strong coupling dynamics. Simple variants of the model are compatible with perturbative unification, can naturally have dynamical supersymmetry breaking at a scale as low as 10 TeV, and can solve the R axion problem without appealing to Planck-scale effects.

Original abstract

We describe a simple class of supersymmetric gauge theories that can act as supersymmetry-breaking sectors for gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking. The models have a local supersymmetry-breaking minimum along a direction in field space where a singlet gets a large expectation value. The potential along this direction has a runaway behavior stabilized by supersymmetry breaking in the effective low-energy theory. The supersymmetric vacua are at infinite field values, and cosmological bounds on false vacuum decay are easily satisfied. The models have no dimensionful parameters, and all mass scales arise through strong coupling dynamics. Simple variants of the model are compatible with perturbative unification, can naturally have dynamical supersymmetry breaking at a scale as low as 10 TeV, and can solve the R axion problem without appealing to Planck-scale effects.

Direct Mediation of Meta-Stable Supersymmetry Breaking

A small deformation of the ISS metastable supersymmetry breaking model generates gaugino masses at leading order and, for large color number or a conformal window, avoids Landau poles.
Gauge Mediation in Metastable Vacua

Small mass parameters in O'Raifeartaigh and Fayet supersymmetry-breaking models can be generated dynamically by coupling them to a hidden Yang-Mills sector, with discrete R symmetries enforcing the structure.

Lectures on Supersymmetry Breaking
hep-ph 2007-02 accept novelty 3.0 of 10

Supersymmetry breaking is organized into four worked mechanisms, with the conclusion that realistic and generic breaking requires living in a long-lived metastable vacuum.

The idea of metastable SUSY breaking false vacua with SUSY preserving true minimum only in the SUSY breaking sector was introduced about ten years ago [ref] .
